Several trade publications have lauded The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center with recent awards and recognition.
The resort has been honored with Meeting South magazine's annual Best of the South award, Meeting and Conventions magazine's Gold Key award and Corporate and Incentive Travel magazine's Award of Excellence. The awards are based on feedback from readers of the publications, which provide industry news and destination coverage.
Readers voted for their favorite properties based on criteria such as quality of meeting space, guest rooms, guest services and amenities, food and beverage service, high-tech services and equipment, recreational facilities and activities, overall value and helpfulness of staff and experience. The conference center was the only Houston-area hotel to be given the Best of the South award, and was one of only five Texas properties to receive the award, according to press release from The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center. ""Our focus is on making sure the meeting attendees have an exceptional service on property while they are conducting business,"" said Tori Enriquez, conference center director of sales and marketing.
""The award is so meaningful because it comes straight from the attendees. It is more personal because these people have actually stayed with us,"" she said.
""They feel like we are doing a great job. It is good for the employees too. There is a difference between receiving praise from your co-workers and supervisors and getting accolades from the actual attendees. It is a wonderful feeling.""
The accolades add too many the conference center has received over the years, Enriquez said. ""It is nice to get that praise and share that with our employees,"" she said. ""We really have to pride ourselves on consistency. You don't want a one-time experience."" Enriquez said it is the employees of the conference center, and the good job they do, who deserve the bulk of the credit for the recognition.
""It truly makes a difference,"" she said.
